During two months on Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1, Tuo65470@temple.edu developed a robust backend for a collaborative story builder, focusing on scalable API design, secure authentication, and flexible data modeling. They established MongoDB persistence using Mongoose, implemented user management with password hashing via bcrypt, and evolved models to support narrative workflows involving stories, critiques, and agent personas. Their work included refactoring for maintainability, comprehensive test coverage with Jest and Supertest, and environment-based configuration for deployment readiness. By addressing data integrity, routing, and security, they delivered a maintainable backend foundation that supports multi-user storytelling and future feature expansion.

April 2025 backend delivery for Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1 focused on establishing a scalable API foundation, data-model evolution, and secure authentication to enable rapid feature delivery and a robust agent/story workflow. Highlights include API scaffolding with route/controller structure, backend endpoints for future CRUD on agents, and improved routing alignment; significant data-model refactor to unify critiques into the story model, plus agent-specific chapters and outlines; password hashing via bcrypt and environment hygiene to secure credentials and config; and extensive test/data improvements to support QA and reliability.

March 2025 (Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-003-story-builder-team-1): Delivered foundational backend capabilities for a production-ready story builder, focusing on data persistence, user authentication, and robust data modeling to support narrative features. Established MongoDB persistence via Mongoose with a refactored connection lifecycle and environment-based configuration; implemented a comprehensive User Management System with authentication support and password hashing; evolved data models for Story, Critique, Vote, and Agent to enable narrative-building workflows. Addressed data integrity and model consistency through targeted fixes (Vote.js, column names/types, and removal of an obsolete email field). Also improved backend quality with coverage reporting updates and general maintenance. These changes establish a scalable foundation for multi-user storytelling features while strengthening security, maintainability, and deployment readiness.
